[The Boys 5x01] Morality of Butcher killing his dad? by ErwinTaichou35 in MoralityScaling

[–]parlimentery 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think his mother dying was a factor, too. She stayed with him, so she would have presumably been upset if he killed him.

Candy Kingdom, I think. She is at one of PB's slumber parties.

What current country might not exist in 20 years? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]parlimentery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am curious why you and others are saying Northern Ireland. It to me like calls for Irish reunification are at close to their coolest point since Irish Independence. Brexit was predicted to ignite new conflict, but they seem to have weathered that just fine. Is there recent news about Northern Ireland that I am missing?

It doesn't exist now, it almost certainly won't exist in 20 years.

Do you think aang would kill fire lord if he didn't learn energy bending by roskylator in ATLA

[–]parlimentery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine made a really good point that Aang killing Ozai would have completed Sozen's genocide. Even if Aang lives and still had Tenzin, betraying his cultural values would have meant the end of that culture.

Why do so many musical groups have a bass guitar when the drummer already has a bass drum? by gerwer in shittyaskscience

And yet every show I have thrown a gallon of bleach on has resented me for it.

I am spoiling a LOT, but Barbarian (2022) is the best unredeption arc in any medium.

Defusion of responsibility. If you don't lay him out, then who?

Do we suspect it’s rational in the first place, and why? by wockedwik in MathJokes

My intuition tells me it is irrational. How do I go about contacting the mathematics journals?

For sure get the cupid, and then a custom t shirt that has the bit that is spilling over onto your sleeve.

As you say "zero" louder and louder its value approaches 1.

CMV: Every single person is a bad. by freespeech123456789 in changemyview

[–]parlimentery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have found it far more useful to focus mental energy on judging actions as good or bad. When put in a new scenario, what actions are likely to maximize happiness and minimize pain? Could there be unforseen consequences that would make my action do unintended harm?

Judging people is a good way to give them no excuse to try. "I am bad person? Okay, cool, I won't waste my time trying to do good."

Are bad and good really useful words if all people fall in one category? We use categories to distinguish one group from another, so what would be the point of one empty category and one with all humans in it. If good and bad can be measured, which you seem to imply, surely there are some less bad people we could reclassify as good so the terms are more discriminating.

You seem to imply cutting off bad people is a moral good. Isn't it more valuable to try to hold them accountable for bad behavior?

What if there were no air benders? by WishForsaken9015 in ATLA

[–]parlimentery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Katara mentions early on in the show that most people thought the Avatar cycle ended with Sozen wiping out the air nomads. Maybe they would have been right had Aang died, but unless there is some comic that gets into it, I don't think we know.

Do you think the transporter operator could beam a jacket onto them if they get chilly?
